FAQs
What makes the Endurance+ fabric special?
Endurance+ fabric is Speedo's longest-lasting swimwear fabric, offering superior chlorine resistance, shape retention, and quick-drying properties. It is typically made from a blend of Polyester and PBT.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While comfortable and durable for training, the Medalist silhouette is designed for regular training sessions and may not provide the high level of compression or hydrodynamic features preferred for competitive racing.
How do I ensure the longest lifespan for my swimsuit?
Always rinse your swimsuit in cold, fresh water immediately after use, dry it flat away from direct sunlight, and avoid using harsh detergents or tumble drying.
What does 'Medalist design' mean?
The Medalist design refers to the cut of the swimsuit, featuring a medium neck, back, and leg cut. This specific cut is optimized to provide greater freedom of movement in the shoulders and back, essential for effective swimming training.
How quickly does the suit dry?
The Endurance+ fabric is designed for quick drying, meaning it will dry significantly faster than conventional swimwear after your workout.
Can I wash this swimsuit in a washing machine?
It is best to hand wash your swimsuit with mild soap in cold water. If using a machine, use a delicate cycle with cold water and a very mild detergent, and ensure it is rinsed thoroughly. Always dry flat.
What is the primary benefit of 100% chlorine resistance?
100% chlorine resistance means the fabric is highly resistant to the degrading effects of chlorine found in swimming pools. This helps the suit maintain its shape, color, and elasticity for a much longer period compared to suits without this feature.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels loose after a few uses.
Ensure the suit was rinsed thoroughly after each use and dried flat. Chlorine residue can degrade fabric. If the issue persists and the suit is within its warranty period, contact customer support.
Color fading significantly.
This is uncommon with Endurance+ fabric but can occur with prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive direct sunlight during drying. Ensure care instructions regarding drying away from direct sunlight are followed.
Discomfort during shoulder movements.
Double-check that the size is correct. An incorrect size can restrict movement. The Medalist design is intended to enhance flexibility, so ensure no other factors are impeding motion.
